Wilt thou forgive that sin where I begun,
     Which was my sin, though it were done before?
Wilt thou forgive that sin, through which I run,
     And do run still, though still I do deplore?
          When thou hast done, thou hast not done,
               For I have more.

Wilt thou forgive that sin which I have won
     Others to sin, and made my sin their door?
Wilt thou forgive that sin which I did shun
     A year or two, but wallow'd in, a score?
          When thou hast done, thou hast not done,
               For I have more.

I have a sin of fear, that when I have spun
     My last thread, I shall perish on the shore;
But swear by thyself, that at my death thy Son
     Shall shine as he shines now, and heretofore;
          And, having done that, thou hast done;
               I fear no more.
